Dream Travel

Chapter 488 Joint Use
“Okay.” The craftsman agreed without hesitation. A piece of material the size of a fist could be divided into smaller pieces to make small ornaments.

Moreover, the craftsman could see through Bai Mu's plan; what he sprinkled into the water was not a good thing, but rather a harmful substance left over from the manufacture of weapons.

As a result, those harmful and toxic substances were directly 'purified' into pure water by this thing.

Make this into a small ornament and carry it with you. In remote areas or places, you can turn sewage puddles into clean water.

The craftsman used this to make some simple hair clips.

The types are different, but the materials used are almost the same.

"You can still make intricate things, can't you?" Bai Mu praised, looking at the hair clips.

“I knew you were giving it to a woman, so I made it a bit more elaborate,” the craftsman said casually.

If it's a gift for gentlemen, it doesn't need much processing; just cut off a piece and grind it.

Whether it's shaped like a needle or some other irregular shape, most men won't care too much.

No, I should say that what I care about is the effectiveness and portability of this product.

It has a good 'purification' effect, and as long as it's not an unacceptable shape, the shape isn't too important, provided it's portable.

"I'm leaving now. I'll contact you again if I need anything."

"Okay," the craftsman said succinctly.

When he's not busy, he doesn't like to be disturbed.

But after Bai Mu left, someone knocked on his door.

Upon seeing the arrivals, the craftsman chuckled, "As before, I haven't revealed any information about you, so don't ask me anything else."

“We know you’ve come to place an order,” the person who arrived said.

The craftsmen did not reveal their information, otherwise Bai Mu would not have been completely unaware of some things.

Putting aside other aspects, the craftsmen were still very ethical in their work.

Therefore, the people who arrived did not intend to force the craftsmen to reveal any further information about the White Curtain.

Given Bai Mu's current strength, the impact of his reveal wouldn't be significant.

The main problem is that White Curtain is growing too fast. Their organization originally planned to use White Curtain to continuously invest in weapon crates.

Once the weapon crates are continuously upgraded, we can reap the rewards we once lost.

This can be considered a way to make up for the organization's initial losses, as they were unable to cultivate a second specialized Banshee Queen.

There are too many coincidences involved in the cultivation of that thing.

But White Curtain's growth rate was too fast, and its influence was also increasing; they couldn't wait any longer.

"An order? You should have said so earlier." The craftsman gave a professional, slight smile. "Let's go inside and discuss it in detail."

Bai Mu returned to the experience store and, under Lily's watchful gaze, took out the hair clips: "Pick one."

"You sought him out just to do this?"

Bai Mu shook his head: "Of course not, this thing can purify water."

"Oh, he does know how to find other uses for this thing." Lily looked at the hair clip and took one: "If we use it as a water purification tool, its value can be increased."

It can purify water and is effective against harmful substances such as poisons, which is very useful for people who are active in the wild or carrying out special operations.

"Is it possible that you deliberately didn't say it?"

"Oh, come on, I'm not that bad." Lily punched Bai Mu's shoulder with her little fist and asked, "Are you going to sell this?"

After thinking for a moment, Bai Mu said, "I've given you the tiger skin. Just keep the jade for now. I might need to cut it into pieces later. If you need to sell it, you won't sell the whole piece, will you?"

"Sharing? That's fine. I'll keep at least half, okay? Then we can discuss how to divide it up for shared use."

“Okay.” Bai Mu agreed to Lily’s suggestion.

This piece of jade is too big, and it's also limited by its energy properties, so it won't be easy to use.

However, one won't suffocate, a thought flashed through Bai Mu's mind.

"Sigh! I have the souls of the Mingjing Sect, including those of the Dharma Protectors and inner disciples. Do you think we can use them through demonic enchantment?"

The guardians were difficult to capture, mainly because they were hard to kill. So Bai Muzhi managed to obtain the souls of three guardians, while the rest were decomposed by Tiandi Wuchen.

As for inner disciples, not all of them know the inside story and can directly capture an ordinary disciple and refine him.

Among the inner disciples who knew the inside story, Bai Mu had captured five, while the rest were ordinary inner disciples.

Those who know the inside story are considered to have good potential but are not good people; they can be given special training to become protectors or branch leaders.

Other ordinary inner disciples are not necessarily less talented; it's just that the Mingjing Sect is so large that it needs people who can do things openly.

Since we're doing things openly, we shouldn't know too many inside stories, lest we leave loopholes when we're doing things.

Whether they knew it or not, they are now in the White Curtain's weapon box, becoming phantoms controlled by the White Curtain.

It can also be used as a battery, just like a demon.

"Demon script works better on demons, but it's not impossible to use it on humans."

Lily thought about it and decided that since the White Curtain had such conditions, she could give it a try, since those phantoms could be used as consumables anyway.

The only difference is that demonic script has a controlling effect on demons, and the characteristics of demons also allow them to enchant, but it's different when it comes to humans.

For humans, a sacrifice is required, forcing them to willingly offer themselves to complete an enchantment-like process. The White Curtain doesn't know much about demonic writing and power; having legitimate demons handle this would be much easier…

Of course, Lily wasn't worried that the White Curtain wouldn't work, since the White Curtain also controlled demons.

"Let's talk about it tomorrow. I'm going home now."

"Get some rest," Lily said with a light laugh, her words carrying a hidden meaning.

"My body doesn't get tired."

Bai Mu waved his hand and went home.

When he came back, he went straight to the Dream Experience area.

After returning home, Bai Mu finally seemed to relax.

Bai Mu sat lazily on the sofa. It was afternoon, and no one was home, which didn't surprise him.

After all, the people here aren't homebodies, and there aren't many internet computers. The TV programs are good, but for someone like Bai Mu who's been exposed to all sorts of online dramas, they're not that appealing.

Click.

A slight sound of the door opening rang out, and Akame returned first.

I saw you on the street.

"Are you patrolling nearby?" Bai Mu felt that Chi Tong was taking some things too seriously.

“Just like before, we’ve been watched all along, and recently the number of people has even increased.” Akame nodded.

Unlike a night raid base that goes undetected, this place is now openly inhabited. Given the high level of attention surrounding White Curtain's identity, it's impossible for Akame not to be concerned about the appearance of people of unknown origin here.

Although some of these people of dubious origin are reporters from certain newspapers, there are also some dangerous individuals mixed in with them.

Her patrol was even discovered by some people, who must have some special abilities.

Akame knew that her combat power had increased a lot compared to before, but this was only a physical enhancement; she did not have any special powers.

She can indirectly use the weapons and meteor earrings that Bai Mu gave her.

"It doesn't hurt to be more careful, but if there's anything you can't handle, just go to Lily's side."

“We know.” Akame nodded gently. Bai Mu had told them about Lily’s situation, and that some problems had arisen when Bai Mu was not around.

Then you can just go to Lily's place; their accommodation is very close to Lily's experience store.

"My sister wanted to kill them outright."

"Kill them! Be careful someone calls the police."

“This is troublesome…” Black Eyes’ voice came from behind the white curtain.

She and Akame acted together, but their activities were limited. They usually trained in the training room at home and then went out for big meals.

Rota City is very well developed; there are several restaurants on one street that satisfy them.

"This is a society governed by the rule of law. You don't want to be investigated, do you?"

“Some people are watching this place every day, and we can’t sleep well.” Black Eyes sat back on the sofa. Even in the peaceful city, the assassin’s skills hadn’t waned.

If it were just ordinary passersby here, they wouldn't think anything of it, but those people are different.

This made the assassins want to eliminate the threat.

Whether they were assassins from the Revolutionary Army or assassins trained by the Empire, their thoughts on this matter were similar.

"After the Serafis matter is resolved, we'll deal with these followers as well."

Bai Mu carefully calculated and realized that he had offended quite a few people, including many unknown forces.

He shook his head and took out the hair clips: "You can choose one."

"Don't you have the same one? What's the use of this?" Kuroko asked, looking at the hair clip that Shiro had taken out.

She wanted to find something exactly the same for herself and her sister, and Bai Mu, being a good boss, wouldn't offer anything ordinary.

He actually brought out an ordinary gift, and Kurohime felt that she should start thinking about what clothes to wear after she washed up that night.

“It can purify water.” Bai Mu explained some of the functions of the ‘Dustless Jade’: “However, it’s still uncertain to what extent it can purify water. I’m going to give it a try.”

“Good stuff,” Black Eyes said. They don’t need this now, but she had suffered some hardship regarding survival resources during her training.

Assassins will do anything to kill their enemies, including poisoning.

It might not be that deadly during training, but what about in actual combat?
However, the probability of needing this thing now is probably not very high, but it's better to be prepared.

"I'll go test it out first." Bai Mu waved his hand and summoned Beatrice through the weapon case.

He had Beatrice take the thing to test it, and before the others returned, he went out and went to the sewers.

Many Awakened Ones contributed to the battle on the Mingjing Sect's side. Even though they were controlled by the White Curtain and had to fight desperately, it was better to fight actively than to fight passively.

The White Curtain is going to give them a break.

As long as you fight actively, you will be rewarded with a period of free time afterward.

Although these awakened ones mainly deal with the grunts in battle, without their restraint, the Mingjing Cult, with its large numbers, is quite troublesome to deal with.
